I just want to know how this circuit functions. All I know is that a diode allows current in one direction only and the capacitors store a charge, resistors dissipate some power and the LED is a power indicator.
So, how does this really work? Okay, the capacitors store the charge. Does the capacitor just store or does it also provide some output power? And what about the in/out/adj, what is this for? My plan is to charge my 6 volt battery.
Any help would be appreciated.
